In a news report yesterday, it was stated that local businesses may be willing to assist O'Rourke's owner to rebuild. Apparently, the diner brought people to Middletown's Main Street and is an asset to the area. I've eaten there once and found the food good. The cramped surroundings are considered charming by some; just uncomfortable by others. No denying that the owner went considerably beyond the usual diner fare. His menu was imaginative and well prepared.
